Not everything in black and white makes sense.
Pompeii: The Legacy
Another take on roman inspired city builders. It’s in early access but already really playable.

Metropolis 1998
City builder inspired by sim city 2000 with pixel graphics. The interesting thing here is that you can plan and decorate the houses you build. So it’s a bit of simcity / sims mix with retro graphics
Currently only a demo is available.
Yeah, they should do an init system instead of reinventing an operating system.
That’s the main problem I have with it.
Of course advocates of systemd will say it’s modular, but there is some kind of capture process going on - you have to relay on the systemd solution, because it fits nicely into the systems ecosystem …
I’m totally with you on that. I use systemd daily and it has enormous benefits for system administration, but I don’t like the direction it’s headed and how the project is lead. That’s what I wanted to bring across here.
That’s what the problem with systemd is. It started out as a “modern” init system but somehow we ended up with some kind of parasitic software heap that tries to replace the userspace.
I mean the latest addition is some kind of OS installer.
To quote James T. Kirk: “why does an init system need an OS installer.”
That’s something I don’t understand.
I mean there is endless capitalism out there - what prevents China from just buying a company that has one? Like if you out up one Trillion dollars on Trumps desk tomorrow they could basically choose which company they want.
So they have been handed some Oday exploits by mainboard manufacturers and are actively exploiting it and somehow I have to like it.
God I hate modern IT.
Seeing how spinless and bought most European politicians are Greenland will be some US territory in a few years. They just need time to prepare the surrender.
Polenta that is not liquid or soup like. I remember it being thick, almost crumbly but I never can get the consistency from my childhood.

I think they are also behind this. Force Taiwan to open up the latest fab in the US - rob their tech and “sink” Taiwan.
If that wasn’t a rich people class institution, it would be called a title mill and closed for that …
This is idiocracy in action. These kind of propaganda ops only work if you can stop the bad stuff you are doing for at least 5 minutes.
When the Saudi comedy festival circus was going on they didn’t imprison and or kill the comedians they paid to go there. They could stop for the metaphorical 5 minutes - the current US clown show is too stupid even for that.
I think we are already seeing that with Microsoft. Another 2-3 rounds of AI and they forget how to build windows.
With enough malice and ignorance you can repurpose epigenetics to fit the Lamarckian model.
As a fellow diaeresis user I concur.
Thinking about that, it reminds me of addiction. You replace your motivational system with another one, that gives you a faster and easier reward.
There is an easy cope out to say, these were bad engineers to begin with, but I’m not convinced.
We know that if you don’t use an ability and use it daily your brain just reallocates resources to other tasks. So if you have a machine that “outsources” thinking for you, you will be less able to think.
Not at all, one is Jesus the other is just bread. I think if you have high enough levels in Catholicism you can tell the difference.
Also if you stick a knife in it and it bleeds it might me Jesus infested, but Catholics don’t like that. They used to kill people for doing that, so consider your surroundings when attempting this.
Tell me which colour gives most freedom. I want to save on groceries.
The only one I can think about is Pharao.
There was a re-release recently
